More Amusing Condi/McCain Hand-Wringing

Wheee! So Condi went to talk to anti-tax bear Grover Norquist's little club today, and, oh, my! The Washington Note just fell into absolute spasms of overthinking and speculation and hypothesizing (twostories!) about what it all means.

BREAKING, they holler, Condi Rice Flirts With VP Possibility -- Speaks to Grover Norquist's Wednesday Group Meeting. OMG! And then they proceed to report... nothing of the sort. And then the whole thing devolves into that same article we've read a million times about rumors of Condi running for office. And like all these stories, there are explicit denials from the Princess Diplomat herself.

Thanks! I did get a bit excited. And just to be clear -- I didn't say she would be VP...just said that people don't speak to Grover Norquist's group of movement conservatives to sell foreign policy achievements...

How come there appears be be two Korean flags and only one Merrikun flag? Typical of the insouciance of "Dr" Rice's incompetent State Dept crew ... what would Thomas Jefferson have said about this vulgar, Bush ass-kissing little lady with academic pretentions and a totally empty mind ...

The portrait of the Founding Father behind her is of course Ben Franklinhttp://johnjhenderson.com/images/White%20House/Portrait%20of%20Ben%20TN.jpg

(One wonders, btw, to how the charming Ben would have reacted to oh-so-always-serious "child-genius" Condi, had he a time machine and even bother to venture to visit our horrid century; one need not speculate that he would have recognized her, in an instant, as the total intellectual fraud that she is, no matter her so-called academic "degrees" from minor "heartland/homeland" learneries).

In speaking about Thomas Jefferson in the above Anon comment, which PSP was kind enough to share with readers, Anon-the-Princess- admirer was speaking about our first Secretary of State, Thomas Jeffersonhttp://www.state.gov/r/pa/ho/time/nr/14317.htm

(How would Jefferson have reacted to the Ph[ony].D Bush-stamp-of-approval "doctor"? I suspect, upon knowing that "Condi" was "in charge" of US foreign policy, by opening a wine bottle from his (Jefferson's) well-stocked cellar at Monticello; and, more importantly, by re-reading the classics about human vanity and incompetence).

@anonymous: Well the lore at U.Va. was that TJ (as Jefferson was known) never got a PhD. And out of deference to him, no PhD's at U.Va. were called "doctor" either, only MDs. All professors were called "Mr/Mrs/Ms" but never "doctor." So he'd probably be jealous that she with her PhD could so sully that fine office.

Wherever was Condi for so many months? She dropped off the face of the earth some time after she vacationed at "The Ranch" with her boss. Now, all of a sudden she reappears as if this lengthy absence wasn't even noticeable??
